Calexico new album Edge Of The Sun

Calexico have announced details of their forthcoming new album Edge Of The Sun out on 13th April via City Slang. Whilst their last album Algiers was seen as a move towards a poppier more accessible sound, Edge Of The Sun turns everything on its head.

Edge Of The Sun takes inspiration from a trip down to Mexico City promising unexplored soundscapes and their most collaborative album to date with guest musicians ranging from Sam Beam (Iron & Wine), Ben Bridwell (Band of Horses), Nick Urata (Devotchka), Carla Morrison, Gaby Moreno, Amparo Sanchez, multi-instrumentalists from the Greek band Takim, and Neko Case.

Just listen to the song “Cumbia de Donde,” which features Carla Morrison…”I’m on my way…”
